jaymanny,

sometimes i wonder what is the age of people i waste my time replying to on NL

i have taken time to read your first post again, i laugh!

you called Buhari a weakling, a man who personally led Nigerian soldiers to chase chadian rebels out of Nigeria and then 50 kilometers into their own territory and annexed the place for us, a man who is the only surviving general that commanded all the major military divisions in this country, a major general by merit.

do you know what it takes to be a second lieutenant (the lowest rank) in the Nigerian army, talk less of making a major general? do you know what superiority means in the army?

And Buhari Planned a coup? did you hear of a Brigadier General Ibrahim Bako that planned and led the coup but was shot by Shagari's presidential guards when he went to arrest him? do you know that was why Buhari was called in to lead the government?

Men, i tire oooo.

You may not support him, but I will not stand your hearsays and rumours. if you want to know about Buhari, stop reading articles written about him, go back to news report of 1983 to 1985 and you will know what and who he is

Gbawe,

dont disappoint me as i see you as a constructive contributor. i have mentioned my own specifics, mention yours. i am not relying on someone's perception that the debate was vague. i have managed without jotting down, in recollecting, days after, the specifics my candidate mentioned.

what are yours? do not generalize. i have been unbiased in saying that as a ribadu supporter, you may listen more attentively to fola than me, so you should be able to recollect what he said. if not, then your candidate failed woefully!

as for Bakare's 'CPC will not do that, ' i know he said that and there are so many things he said which i just filtered, but i held on to those that connects with me, and a lean government does.

I forgive you because you are not voting Jonathan, but while are you worried over Buhari's past when the man you support Ribadu sees Buhari as a mentor and has once publicly said 'Muritala Mohammed and Mohammadu Buhari' are great men!

Have you seen Ribadu criticising Buhari? so why you dey worry? it wont work guy.

Ribadu needs to learn political lessons and he will learn by contesting now. Buhari has learnt in 2 elections and 50months in court fighting rigging. he is better prepared now and wait till april when Buhari wins in Adamawa, Ribadu's state!

Gbawe

if i recall the questions?

ON corruption - Bakare was specific on removing immunity of governors and presidents from criminal cases
on role of VP - He listed 6 constitutional roles the vp must perform including chairman of National Privatisation council (quoting sections of constitution)
on sharia - he mentioned specifically the supremacy of the nigerian constitution over sharia but the freedom to practice ones religion
on his statement on Buhari being the old generation that has passed away - he never denied it but re-emphasised his change of mindset considering present situation
on economy - no answer
on recurrent expenditure - he mentioned a lean public service manned by competent hands


i think in terms of specifics and ability to convince people based on your opinion and confidence, i stand with Bakare.

Maybe because i am a BB supporter, i can't remember the specifics Oyegun and Fola mentioned. i will appreciate if you can remember and tell me now.

In debate, you have to be composed and not run around the stage, this is what Bakare did. Debate in those school days are the same, guy.

Funny thing is the interviewer from Next messed up considering the questions she asked. and it is a shame that the same next newspapers criticised the debate one of theirs anchored. you see how biased the media is

so this is what naijaking and the 40 GEJ supporters have degenerated to? The pastor becoming a politician did not work, now you guys are at the point of inciting muslims against Bakare.

Let me tell you though: A pro GEJ Senator and campaigner had already said Bakare should be stoned as a former muslim, but what happened when Bakare went to the core muslim north west and spoken to the crowd without security. he even shouted PDP Haram in Maiduguri and the muslim crowd screamed after him.

Guys,

When change is backed by God, nothing you say to incite hatred can be effective

The Buhari/Bakare campaign team is the only team that started their campaign with one week fasting and prayer ending in mosque and churches. that is why the campaign has been devoid of plane crashlanding, road accidents, deaths at rally stampede unlike GEJ who has had tragedy following him in PH, Katsina, Nasarawa, Gombe!


Keep the propaganda going though, it doesn't matter when change is moving at a daring speed!

people are still arguing on VP debates when the streets is screaming BB!

It is natural for your support for your candidate to blur your sense of judgement of the debate. Nobody mentioned that Bakare understood the role of the VP more than the others, nobody mentioned that Bakare said they will seel to amend the constitution to remove immunity clause while fola only said Ribadu and himself will live a non-corruptible life nobody remembered Bakare saying they will remove ethnicity, state of origin from all documents and replace with state of residence in an attempt to stop ethnic violence.

the only area i can concede he didn't do well was on the economy, but even fola missed this completely.


Bakare did well as a lawyer (role of VP) and social commentator (socialand religious issues) but failed on economy. Fola failed on economy (his strenght) and rambled through the rest (i was amazed seeing a former CEO having stage fright and fidgeting ). i remembered my job interview years and this same people tell you you are not confident

In all, Bakare and Buhari have both said they are not economist, but incorruptible duo who will build a formidable team to run the economy.

Integrity, incorruptibility and the will and courage to make things happen abide with them, and this is enough for me. People say Buhari is old, yet he has covered 8 states by road in the last 2 weeks!

First time the North West and North East will speak with one voice in an election. 29 million votes already! Minna and Nasarawa, Abuja will vote enblock in the North Central for BB. South west will be a battle ground and BB is already making inroads with people like us as foot soldiers. PDP can indeed lose an election

Thank you. Wondering if you are in Nigeria Because it seems you are so lost from the realities setting in.

You better start moving from house to house to tell what you have just written because Buhari's growing popularity on Nairaland and Facebook (every minute you refresh your facebook page, the number of fans keep changing) is a reflection of what is happening on the street. The face of Network Marketing in Nigeria is leading the Buhari Bakare Volunteer Group. That is the kind of massive campaign arsenal you are dealing with.

so start going door by door, with your lies. but dont be afraid of getting beaten for peddling falsehood.

I have never voted in Nigeria's election. Now I am determined to vote and get the 60 votes i have convinced to vote for Buhari Bakare. That is me alone on a change mode, many are out there. we have moved beyond the lies, oga

i must be stupid for replying to you for insinuating Bakare is from Kwara at this time and age. but i prefer to be stupid for a second to tell your Bakare is a core egba man with his father's house being a monument in the heart of Abeokuta.

As for the link, yes i saw the pictures, it is not different from what you posted. please show me one that shows sea of heads like we had in Ibadan for a fulani Buhari

and what happened to the other part of the stadium?

Fola Adeola and Tunde Bakare are from AbeokUTA! Gej will lose that state, no stories

Funny enough, the propaganda against Buhari keep increasing and yet the popularity in nairaland and on the street keep increasing, it has no mathematical explanation, when change is imminent, it happens and explanations can only be sought later.

Jakumo, Beaf and all the GEJ Almajiris. Keep the fire burning!

Well, you have only between those 2 men to chose (a clueless and dishonest Jonathan or a brave, incorruptible and the only surviving general that commanded all the main military divisions in this country, who chased Chadian rebels out of his country, 50 kilometers into Chad, who dared IMF, the west, changed currency notes to fight corruption, killed drug lords, jailed journalists for reporting falsehood - even now, all newspapers in Nigeria are being sponsored by corrupt politicians, so I agree with him totally for coming hard on a media that has been corrupted by NPN, and who will use their media to sabotage their cleansing of the augean table of Shagari regime.

Who is asking Buhari to beg for forgiveness? I stand by any man who has stood by what his actions are or were as long as he considers it just and right. That is integrity. can Wole Soyinka sieze a radio station with a gun today as an old man like he did in the 60's. Buhari as a military man has shown in retirement that he is a man who believes so much in Democracy. how many former head of states have sat down for 50 months challenging election rigging in court, how many head of states have houses in Abuja and he does not have a single one despite spending 3 years in PTF Abuja, how many head of states have an oil well and Buhari does not have one despite being the only former head of stating that has held the most lucrative positions in government. Please name a single Buhari company you know, name his children. but you know mohammed abacha, mohammed babangida, and the rest. a man who has tested

a columnist wrote that it is daring for buhari and bakare to ask for 1 vote for 2 honest men because it takes a lot of guts to say that openly. but has PDP or the federal government come out with any report past and present to counter this? Nigeria's problem is leadership that has always have a question mark on their integrity and lack the will to fight corruption.

Buhari, Ribadu have the will to fight it and have shown it. But Buhari has a better chance, the North west and North East have spoken with the kind of rallies that happend in the North, South West spoke yesterday at Ibadan. Victory is certain and i hope you will be here to celebrate with us.

Olawumx,

and what if he wins? will you leave the country for us? because it looks like he is going to win!

everybody has his bad and his good, but is his good better than his bad? yes, i will prefer an incorruptible patriot to a dishonest, clueless coward!


if you are a woman and you are told to chose between 2 men - one smokes, drinks, takes good care of a woman but does not beat a woman or cheats or a man that does not drink, smoke, but beats and cheats on his woman. which one will you take?

Buhari Bakare Vote here, accompanied by 60 commited votes I have won through door to door campaign!

Ozin,

are you done?

Thanks. wait till April 9.

U dey vex?

Nothing makes sense to PRO GEJ fools. so we are not surprised by your remarks

Criteria for me

Who seized the limited time to go into details of his programmes as contained in his manifesto?
who seems most sincere and passionate about his contribution?
who had the best erudition?
who was the most calm and confident?
who made statements that will stick to your memory till April 9?

Bakare won this debate hands down. no sentiments. the  most calm, confident, erudite and detailed speaker. even the foreigners here beside me believes so!

All,

Before we all start screaming Blue murder, watch the debate 9PM on NN24 this evening.

Few words from me. Tired of all arguments on NL. Full concentration on winning April Polls with Buhari / Bakare 2011 team.

Cheers

The useless Propaganda that will not work this time around for PDP has started. The lie on Buhari calling Sharia in Nigeria has disappeared, PDP and co are looking for a new one, and they found it, shamefully. Protect, guard your votes and ensure nobody steals your ballot box said in Hausa has suddenly turned LYNCH. Shame on them!

They know Buhari is not corrupt

They know the Islamist tag has faded, thanks for Pastor Bakare who even campaigned in the Core North without a stone thrown at him as incited by a Jonathan Sambo Campaign man.

They know his popularity has taken over the whole North and gaining ground in the South

The New Lie - Buhari said they should kill people.

This new one will have no impact on the Moving BB Train. Buhari Bakare have done 6 regional campaigns, and it was peaceful, no bomb blast, no averted plane crash, no tear gas, no stoning. This is the only campaign ticket that started their campaign with 1 week of fasting and prayer and so far God has been with them.

More please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can see you dont have a job. The BB 2011 train will crush you on April 9, 2011. God will spare your life till then despite your lies

guys please follow update on buhari facebook page. NN24 is a disaster!

the useless NN24 is yet to start! they are 1 1/2 hrs behind schedule. useless people

dem never start ooo. i thought it was 6pm. am still glued to TV sha

Let the discourse begin based on what we see or hear today at the Vice Presidential Debate.

Jarus,

Please a poll after the debate will be welcome.

Hi All

If you have noticed, I don't respond to Pro-GEJ supporters again. waste of time for me. I am concentrating on the undecided and pro-Ribadu voters, and I have won many to the BB ticket, and I mean many.

You never win with Pro-GEJ people because logic and objectivity is not the basis of their support. But one thing i have noticed is while GEJ supporters are arm chair commentators and optimist (never leave their seat to convince people to vote Jonathan) the BB foot soldiers are backing their support with action.

9ijaman,

Leave them alone, guard your precious time

how was the crowd like? any picture that covers the whole area?

thanks wadeoye.

this una propaganda will not work. it rather strengthens us. Obama was called anti-christ, his pastor messed up, they said he was not american and a black face cannot make white house. these are the soughts of bad belle that comes into play when change is inevitable.

And as the pastor used to say 'that was then, this is now'

Checked the bible and see where God reversed HIMSELF! Busybodies, in your entire life, have you not changed your mind on something?

Even I personally dont accept what every pastor in Nigeria tells me as I know there is every sense of human factor in their utterances, no matter how Godly they are, they are not God!

Dipo1234,

you need pastor bakare to come out and defend himself? where were you when he defended it? please search more!

Please provide BB2011 Owerri Update, if any, as usual.

Thanks.

is Attire Nigeria's problem?

NSIMAN, U dey vex, Johndoe200, Beaf, all these usernames need to be audited. they all sound the same in the thinking.

Do you know how much it costs to sow attire of every state in the country? is this election a fashion parade?

Buhari Bakare are showing what governance should be? it is about prudence, simple and do the right thing.

Visiting traditional rulers in PH is subject to security considerations. Jonathan can visit sultan of sokot because he will shut down the city just like he did in Jos. But Buhari and Bakare are moving about with private security men. the rally of BB2011 had on 20 policemen in minna.

Well, they visited Rotimi Ameachi, is that not good enough?

Please discuss issues here, not attire. you make us look insane by even replying to you. buf if that is what will cure your madness, i can be insane for a second
